• a suitable Memorandum of Understanding/Partnering Agreement for district disaster co-ordination be developed between the Department of Emergency Services and the Queensland Police Service which clearly outlines their respective roles and responsibilities; and
• the Department of Emergency Services finalise its review of protocols which outline the respective roles and responsibilities of the State and local governments.
